West End Bridge, is great. I live nearby. I can access the whole city from it. 376 east and west, 279 north and south, North Shore, Downtown, 65, 51, North Side, and South Side. Traffic flows well, even at rush hour. Speaking of rush hour, lets all try to be considerate. If we are considerate, traffic will flow even better. Peace!

I didnt know you could review a bridge. Well I have crossed it many times. No trolls live below it. And it didnt collapse into the water. So good job bridge.

Great pedestrian walking strip across the bridge. Its at least 3 people wide so you dont feel scared or claustrophobic walking across the bridge. Terrific views of the river & city & its especially beautiful at night when the city is lit up.

It isnt really the bridges fault, I suppose, that so many sources of traffic all converge onto it, so my rating is only for the actual bridge and its...fine. It hasnt been super well maintained, but then again it is pretty old--maybe it just needs some paint. There are arrows or Xs above each lane implying that the flow of traffic can be changed, but Ive never seen that actually used, its always two lanes in each direction.

If youre a photographer shooting sunrise photography, this is the place to go for beautiful shots of the city. try it in the summertime, or a very peaceful day and youll get nice shots with calm water. watch out for cars and trucks passing by, because your camera will shake for long exposures

Its a good bridge, but there are trolls living underneath. They are dirty and they leave garbage on the pedestrian walkways. Its so filthy its dangerous. Needles and feces. It needs cleaned up and cleaned out.

Its a big bridge that does big bridge things with an added view. 12/10 would cross again to get to north shore without the nightmare of ft pitt/ft duq

I was able to cross the river, so as a bridge it works well. Traffic tends to snarl during rush hour though.

It wouldve been nice to know that I cant make a left to the Southside.. a little before hand. Not knowing that the sign that reads McKees Rocks was, the turn for less than a few seconds and then a another few seconds another left turn.. hmmm... a sign isnt all that hard to post... Grrr!

Its like, you know, a bridge. I use it to cross the river for various reasons. 10/10 would cross again. Especially since I have to go to work.

Ttttttttttttttrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaffffffffffffffffffffiiiiiiiiicccccccccc. The last two miles of my evening commute usually take upwards of 20 minutes. People gridlock coming from 65 and from the north side. Its not fun.Still, once youre on the bridge, the view is super nice! It gets +1 star for that.

Without this bridge imagine your commute, rush-hour or none its pretty significant.Rating down a bridge wont fix the issue send letters to your council, but the fix will always end up coming from our pockets. But just think if the did do construction on or near this bridge it will end up adding to the problem that already exists until completed.

I dont know how I could contribute about this bridge other than I drive over it often! Certain hours of the day r busier w/traffic than others! AGAIN-this is a bridge questions like: is there a parking lot? Or, is there wheelchair accessibility? does not apply!!! It just seems so silly when theres questions like that! LOL

If you want a unique view of the Point, take a walk over the West End Bridge. Its loud, its noisy, it shakes. Best time to cross is during the day. You really dont need to be crossing it at night, unless you are there for the 4th of July fireworks display.
